For those of you love to count every little calorie, you may want to look at the bigger picture.

If your daily food and drink consumption consists of salty potato chips or a can of pop, you may be adding 54,750 calories per year to your diet. And if you look at that total number — it's not doing any favours to your health.

And sure, numbers are numbers but achieving weight loss is about eating foods in moderation — but not everything.

"'Everything in moderation' gives the impression that all foods are nutritionally equal. Well, they aren't. You should not be eating moderate amounts of vegetables and moderate amounts of dessert," says Carrie Dennett in an article for The Seattle Times. Instead, moderation means eating moderate amounts of healthy foods and little or no amounts of junk foods, she adds.

And if you plan on ignoring your calorie intake and strictly focusing on losing weight by exercising and eating healthy, make sure you are frequently eating healthy and fresh foods, according to Men's Health Magazine.

Take a look at the bigger number: here are 15 food and drinks and their total calorie counts after 365 days:
